CHI Health Plainview Hospital has had, and will have

a new provider working for a few weeks, a visiting physi-

cian’s assistant student from Des Moines University.

Skyler Bentley, originally of Omaha, has been at the

hospital for the past few weeks, and will continue in her

service until August 5 as the second of her 12 rotations

necessary for her education.

She has been seeing patients, while being supervised

by Plainview’s current providers, and has been helping

out with Emergency Room calls during her time in Plain-

view.

Bentley said she is living in Plainview during her time

here, and has enjoyed the pool and park, noting that they

both were very nice additions for the community, and

noted Subway’s ice cream shop as one of her most liked

locations in town so far.

Bentley is in her 14th month of her 25-month training

program to become a Physician’s Assistant, and she ex-

pects to complete her training in June of 2017.

The Lower Elkhorn Natural Resources District (LENRD)

received a grant from Nebraska’s Water Sustainability Fund

(WSF) and has cost-share available for producers who have

yet to install flow meters on their irrigation wells. All irriga-

tion wells in the LENRD will need a district approved flow

meter installed by January 1, 2018.

To assist landowners with the expense of this requirement,

the LENRD will provide financial support of $500 per flow

meter. It is important to note that landowners must first apply

and be approved for reimbursement, prior to purchase and

installation of the meter.

Application for the flow meter cost-share can be com-

pleted by visiting your local Natural Resources Conserva-

tion Service (NRCS) office and filling out the appropriate

application forms. These requests are then forwarded to the

LENRD for processing.

In addition, the LENRD will offer incentive payments of

$250 per flow meter to producers who are approved for the

Environmental Quality Incentive Program (EQIP) funding.

The EQIP program is administered by NRCS and offers a

host of incentives for irrigation water management.

LENRD water resources manager, Brian Bruckner, said,

“The deadline to have flow meters installed on all irrigation

wells is January 1, 2018. These incentives are available for

producers who get signed up for the cost-share by June 30,

2017. The maximum payment that a producer can receive is

$5,000 per year for irrigation practices.”

Nebraska’s Natural Resources Commission approved

nearly $11.5 million in projects through the WSF, with

$900,000 being awarded to the LENRD for water and soil

conservation. The LENRD will provide a match of

$600,000. This will allow the district to have $1.5 million

available for cost-share assistance on irrigation flow meters.

district. Like us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter.

Heartland Vet Clinic’s Plainview

office has a new face in Dr. Barrett

Huneke, DVM, who started in the

last month serving the Plainview

area.

Huneke and his wife-to-be, Dr.

Karla Buller, both recently graduated

from the University of Nebraska’s

veterinarian program, of four years

in undergrad at UN-L and then a

“2+2” program of two additional

years at UN-L and finishing at Iowa

State University.

Huneke was originally from

Wilber and his future wife was from

Henderson. Huneke said he was

raised on a dairy farm that milked

around 200 head. After selling the

cows, he said his family still had a

small cow-calf operation, horses and

dogs around home.

He was involved in 4-H and FFA

in his younger years, and even par-

ticipated in high school rodeo - and

some of that experience carried over

to his desire to be a veterinarian.

Huneke will be serving as a “jack

of all trades” for Heartland, but said

his main interests lay in large ani-

mals – cattle and horses – specifi-

cally in bovine reproduction

services, artificial insemination and

embryo transfer.

“I am very happy to be here as I

have reached a career goal of being

a mixed animal veterinarian practic-

ing in a rural community,” said

Huneke, saying he has already really

enjoyed the diversity of the work he

can experience right here around

Plainview with cow-calf operations

to feedlots and the variety of smaller

animals in the area as well.

The couple has purchased a home

south of Plainview, where they will

reside after a honeymoon to Disney

World following their June 30 wed-

ding.

Huneke will be holding regular

Plainview office hours, from 8 a.m.

to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday,

and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to noon.

He can be reached through the clinic

at 402-582-4511 or after hours at

402-644-3078.

The Nebraska Department of Roads

(NDOR) will hold an Information Open

House August 3 to solicit feedback on a

newly developed alternative for the pro-

posed improvement of Nebraska High-

way 12 (N-12), known as Niobrara East

& West, in Knox County.

The open house will be held from

5:00 - 7:00 p.m. at the Niobrara High

School – Gymnasium, 247 North High-

way 12, in Niobrara.

There will be a short presentation be-

ginning at 5:00 p.m., prior to the open

house.

NDOR applied for a Section 404 of

the Clean Water Act permit from the

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps)

in September of 2015. As part of the

permit process, the Corps held a public

hearing on November 9, 2015. At that

time, the public had concerns and rec-

ommended an alternate solution should

be sought. The public cited hardships

on landowners, farms, and ranching op-

erations.

Concerns were also expressed re-

garding icing and snow removal chal-

lenges on a roadway adjacent to the

bluffs. In a letter to the Corps, NDOR

requested that the permit application be

withdrawn.

NDOR has developed a new alterna-

tive (A8) adjacent to the existing high-

way to provide a long- term

transportation solution for N-12.

NDOR has hosted meetings with the

Corps, the Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA), and the National Park

Service (NPS) to evaluate this alterna-

tive and the environmental impacts in

advance of a permit decision.

The proposed project includes two

segments of the existing N-12 roadway

east and west of the Niobrara. The

highway experiences flooding and dam-

age due to high water levels associated

with the Missouri River. The NDOR is

proposing to improve N-12 to eliminate

damage caused by flooding and provide

a reliable, stable and safe roadway for

the region.

Personnel from the Department of

Roads will be available to answer ques-

tions, receive comments, and discuss

any aspect of the proposed highway im-

provement project. Information regard-

ing the project will be available after the

meeting on the NDOR website at

www.roads.nebraska.gov/projects/fu-

ture-projects/ by clicking on the “Nio-

brara East & West” link.

Dr. Barrett Huneke, DVM, the new veterinarian at the Heartland Clinic in Plainview

will be offering the community care for large and small animals.

The Pioneer Farm award was

sponsored by the Ak-Sar-Ben

Foundation and the Nebraska

Farm Bureau. It is awarded to

farm families who have main-

tained continuous ownership of

property for 100 years.

This year, Pierce County pre-

sented the award to three fami-

lies: the Larry D. and Anne M.

Muhs farm, the Fred W. and

Emma Meyer farm and the Harry

and Verna Schlote farm.

The Schlote farm award, in

particular, was received by nu-

merous past and present Plain-

view families, as pictured with

Lubkes, Hardistys and Schlotes

all in attendance to represent the

family.

The farm of Harry and Verna

Schlote was homesteaded in 1887

by Daniel Brooks. Harry

Schlote’s grandparents, Herman

and Bertha Luedtke, purchased

the farm in 1912. It was passed

down to his parents, George and

Marie Schlote, in 1940. The farm

was then passed to Harry and

Verna Schlote in 1973. He passed

away in 2011, and the farm is still

owned by Verna Schlote.

Mary (Bichlmeier) Petersen was specially honored at the 2016 Pierce County Fair last week for her efforts

over the last 25 years as the Pierce County Ag Society’s treasurer. She is pictured at center, bracketed

by Ag Society Vice-President Jim Herian (left) and Ag Society President LeRay Zierke (right).

“Understanding our community”

By: Michael Holton

City Administrator

There are times when we need to

sit back and reflect on the positives

of where we live and not get caught

up in the quicksand of what used to

be.

We all have

favorite memo-

ries of a time

gone by but they

are just that,

memories.

Plainview is 130

years old. There

are times that I

don’t always

agree with

Brook and we

have learned to be able to discuss

and productively argue over some

of his columns and opinions. This

is what is called a professional re-

lationship and together we can want

the same things but in different

ways.

Last week in his column, Brook

spoke of the positives of Plainview

and what they look like compared

to the many communities that he

frequents each week. I thought he

was spot on in every word that was

written. People need to sit back and

remember what some of the prob-

lems were in Plainview in the past

and what has been done to correct

them.

As a city administrator I get to

listen to folks who dwell in the past

and sometimes the present but not

in the future. I don’t have the lux-

ury of dwelling in the past or the

present some days. Everything that

I do is geared to the future at least

five years out if not longer. This is

strategic planning.

There are several obstacles that

often get in the way, both physical

and politically but I need to work

through these and do the best I can.

There are several other people that

I have watched lately that are get-

ting on that same wave length and

it has been refreshing.

As Brook pointed out there are

several communities that look to

Plainview for guidance because of

what we have done well. The latest

phone call to my office came from a

small town northeast of us seeking

to put in a new swimming pool and

wanted to know how we got the

funding and support.

Another community called to

know why our electrical system

seems work so well and what can

they do to make theirs better or

more efficient. I did not have the

heart to tell them that there are peo-

ple in Plainview that feel that our

electrical system is worthless and

needs completely replaced. Several

communities are seeking ways to

improve their water or sewer sys-

tems and have looked at Plainview

as a model.

When I tell them that we have

our own problems with the water

and sewer system, they just laugh.

Usually they respond with “you

don’t know what problems are.”

Fullerton is dealing with high se-

lenium in their water system and

are having to replace wells to help

lower the high counts. Wayne, for

example has tested high in sele-

nium, nitrates, copper, radon and

uranium. Our biggest contaminant

in the water system so far has been

nitrates which have been increasing

for several years due to the agricul-

tural practices of the past.

As part of a larger effort to iden-

tify the areas affected by nitrates,

Plainview has joined with the Nat-

ural Resource Districts in the area

to use the most modern technology

to locate the hot spots through map-

ping by air. You have probably no-

ticed the helicopter flying low over

our area lately. This is what I am

talking about when it comes to

looking at the future. The question

that you have to ask yourself is not

what Plainview will look like today

but what will it look like in five

years. Then you plan accordingly.

In the meantime, look at support-

ing our schools, ball programs,

music programs, swimming pool,

parks, businesses, Frisbee golf

course, etc. These all help to make

Plainview a nice and friendly town

for future families.

Shameless Self-Promotion

In this edition of The Plainview News there are 12,639 words.

That’s 82,000 characters and about 45 hours worth of work on primarily a

Monday and a Tuesday.

That’s 12,639 words that will be forever inscribed into paper, microfilm

and scrapbooks of all of us, hopefully for a long, long time.

It includes social news, obituaries, sports, youth events, bowling, columns,

municipal news and public notices, thoughts, card showers, considerations,

retellings, statistics and, of course, color pictures.

This past week the staff and April and I drove about three hours northeast

to Sheldon, Iowa to visit our printing plant at White Wolf Web. There’s a bit

of a story to follow next week, but the capabilities we’ve come to, the possi-

bilities we have - certainly outshine the negatives, plates and regular press

runs of the past.

I’ve had the benefit of seeing both sides - the “old” way and the “new”

way. I’m a pretty nostaligic person, and I resist change when I have too many

questions without solid answers and some math to prove up.

We’re printing in full color, and were one of the first in northeast Nebraska

to do so - we’ve had a website for at least 20 years, from very humble begin-

nings to what we’re producing now - we’ve got the Facebook/Youtube/Twit-

ter trifecta and have been increasing our commercial printing capabilities by

leaps and bounds to compete on a global, internet market.

All of that, we typically sell for at least 30 percent less than you can find

such a thing in Norfolk or another surrounding community - especially if

you’re considering some shipping or not.

As far as the newspaper is concerned, I’m not sure whether to be worried

or not. We’ve got about 500 households in this community, and we’ve got

about 1,000 subscriptions.

But with the advent of the internet, cell phones and online publications,

I’ve been getting quite a few emails about things being “free.”

One person, in particular, had commented that they had felt that the fact we

don’t release all our complete obituaries online for free was absurd in “this day

and age.”

While we’ve made some huge advancements, we haven’t fired much staff,

cut our overhead, turned off too many lights, or eliminated computer and soft-

ware expenses.

The “fun math” is that you can receive 12,000-plus words, tons of color pic-

tures (and the good-old-black and white), cartoons, columns, crosswords, puz-

zles, nationwide columns and advice, all the scrapbooking material, historical

possiblities and record of our lives - for 62 cents a week - delivered.

Subscribers are part of the life-blood of my organization(s) - regardless of

how much internet service I provide, how many free things I give away - I

have 14 staff overall right now, printing costs, full color to pay for and postage

of an almost unbelieveable amount.

That’s not meant to complain or throw out worry - it’s just to implore you

all to subscribe.

For 62 cents, less than....well, everything really, you can eight to 12 pages

of history delivered to your post box or home with all of the above listed ben-

efits.

We have the opportunity in this world to receive limitless information “for

free” - but I can guarantee you no one will ever do what my staff does “for

free.” It’s just not possible.

In the realm of advertising - newspaper, print, radio, posters, calendars, tel-

evision, internet, Facebook - there just aren’t enough dollars to go around to

fully support everyone that believes they can do it.

I can’t stress enough that when all the fads are gone, all the “new” wears

off and when people are tired of having to search for the news they want - we

will still be here, doing what we do. It’s a tried and true process and business

model that isn’t even close to failing.

Contrary to popular belief, and much local differences, the Plainview News

still publishes all news for free. And we always will - when you’re paying to

publish your information online elsehwere, just remember to “CC” us so we

can do it for free, the same way we’ve been doing it for 100 years, and will

continue to do in one shape or another for another 100.

We wanted to extend a big thanks

to everyone from Plainview for a

great Jr. Legion Baseball season.

Curtis and I have been coaching

youth baseball, basketball, and foot-

ball for many, many years and we

wanted to acknowledge the fact that

this year, coaching Junior Legion

baseball in Plainview, has been one of

the best all-around experiences we’ve

ever had coaching.

All the way from the players, a

great assistant coach, Kevin Masat,

the parents, Ballbackers, and fans, we

couldn’t have asked for more. The

community of Plainview should be

proud of the programs you have there

and the amazing Ballbackers group as

well.

Most people don’t realize the

amount of time and effort that’s

needed for these programs so this

group deserves a lot of recognition!

U.S. Department of Agriculture

(USDA) Nebraska Farm Service

Agency (FSA) Executive Director

Dan Steinkruger reminds farmers

and ranchers they have until Aug. 1

to enroll in Agriculture Risk Cover-

age (ARC) and/or Price Loss Cov-

erage (PLC) programs for the 2016

crop year.

“Producers have already elected

ARC or PLC, but they must enroll

for the 2016 crop year by signing a

contract before the Aug. 1 deadline

to receive program benefits,” said

Steinkruger. “Producers are encour-

aged to contact their local FSA of-

fice to schedule an appointment to

enroll.”

The programs trigger financial

protections for participating agri-

cultural producers when market

forces cause substantial drops in

crop prices or revenues. Nation-

wide, more than 1.76 million farm-

ers and ranchers are expected to

sign contracts to enroll in ARC or

PLC. Covered commodities under

the programs include barley,

canola, large and small chickpeas,

corn, crambe, flaxseed, grain

sorghum, lentils, mustard seed,

oats, peanuts, dry peas, rapeseed,

long grain rice, medium grain rice

(which includes short grain and

sweet rice), safflower seed, sesame,

soybeans, sunflower seed and

wheat.

For more program information,

contact the local FSA office or visit

www.fsa.usda.gov/arc-plc. To find

the local FSA office, visit http://of-

fices.usda.gov.

She attended Plainview Public School and graduated from Plainview High

School in 1984.

On April 5, 1985, she married the love of her life, Andy Miller, and they were

blessed with two children, Monty and Kayla. Miller enjoyed attending her chil-

dren’s activities and coached soccer for nine years.

She was secretary for the United Methodist Church from 1998 to 2016, and

was also employed at Osmond Republican 10 years, worked at and was a board

member at Osmond Public Library six years, and was a safety director for Dou-

ble R Trucking Company in Pierce seven years.

in its day-to-day operations.

family and friends.

She was preceded in death by her father, Duane Kudera, and grandparents Mar-

vin and Leona Shearer and Charles and Mary Kudera.

Kayla of Osmond; son, Montana, and his wife, Cindy, and their children Kaleigh,

Tee

The 18th was a little warm for the

Ladies but 30 of the devout played a

round and partook of Ms. Wacker’s

Windsor Loin dinners.

Ladies Club tourney is next Monday,

August 1, so come and play at your

leisure, but remember this will be a se-

rious golf night for the record books.

Relax after the tense time with taco sal-

ads provided by Candi Johnson and

friends.

The Ladies had a warm night on

Monday, but Thursday night was just

plain HOT for the Fun Nite on the 21st,

but six three-man teams still played all

kinds of different scramble formats,

which is a break for the guys playing

on Thursdays so the drawing of teams

will probably return again this season.

Twenty-eight enjoyed the ribeye din-

ners with Frahm boys serving.

The Stag this Thursday, the 28th,

Greg Mullins is in charge serving bar-

becue pork sandwiches, potatoes and

salad. Supposed to be nice weather,

come out and enjoy.

The adult-child tourney, the best

tourney the Club offers, was held on

Sunday, the 24th, with 21 teams partic-

ipating. The teams were divided into

three flights with three winning places

in each flight.

Following are the winners listed in

order of 3rd, 2nd and 1st in each flight:

Third: Jake and Kim Zuhlke, Kenny

and Todd Hart, Jessica and Tim Hoff-

man

Second: Jaxson and Cassy Jelinek,

Guy and Jeff Wortman, Teegan and

Erik Burns

First: Gunnar and Tim Knaak, Lexyn

and Matt Meuret, Chase and Dan

Largen

The young ones used the appropri-

ate tees by age and the rules said at least

three tee shots had to be used by each

team member. In some cases it turned

out that the adult was having trouble

getting their share being used, so it was

a fun afternoon for all.

All types of prizes were handed out

to the younger team members and most

players stuck around to scarf up burg-

ers, hotdogs and friends which was the

Sunday evening meal. A total of 48

were served in the evening with the

Dummers doing the dirty work.

Should have made mention of the

D&K fund raiser scramble held on the

16th as there were 80 golfers taking

over the Course. The Tourney can be

rated as a success as 80 golfers had fun

and there was decent money raised for

the high school bowling teams.

The foursome of Josh Homme, Brett

Korth and Courtney and Josh

Kounovsky won the scramble with a

fine score of 59. Most golfers know the

adage, “Drive for show, putt for

______.” In the winning group there

were three macho types who could

pound the ball, but young Mrs.

Kounovsky was the one who made the

dough, making three putts for birdies

and one for an eagle.

The “Best of the Best” is this Satur-

day. A four man scramble with a large

cash prize for the winning team. Some

entered teams could be considered local

and some are coming form a good dis-

tance and from out of state.

There will be some outstanding

golfers who are very good and some

golfers who think they are good, so

come out and watch. The gallery

should absolutely remember golf eti-

quette and if children are brought

along, put a lease and muzzle on them

if necessary. That’s a funny, so don’t

start thinking child abuse. Tee-off is at

10 a.m.

The Steak and Sweet Corn feed will

be August 4. For $20 a patron will re-

ceive a ticket for a refreshment, and a

ticket for a meal consisting of ribeye

steak, and all the corn, onion rings, and

Redosti-Naprstek tomatoes the patron

desires.

In a decent restaurant the compara-

ble pricing would range from $30-$50.

All the corn, onions and tomatoes a guy

wants to eat is a pretty good deal, and

it’s tasty.

Everyone is welcome – as long as

your birth certificate certifies you are a

male and born before August 3rd, 1998.

Grandmother’s Vases

Q: My grandmother was raised in

Weymouth, Massachusetts. In 1909,

when she got married, she received

three vases crafted by William Henry

Grueby, a Boston potter. Although I am

not all that familiar with pottery from

this period, I think all three are in the

Arts and Crafts style. Are Grueby

pieces worth keeping? — Ramona,

Augusta, Maine

A: According to Schroeder’s An-

tiques Price Guide published by Col-

lector Books, your vases could be quite

valuable.

William Henry Grueby began work-

ing with tiles when he was about 15

years old. He later founded the Grueby

Faience Company in Boston and began

experimenting with art pottery. He de-

veloped glazes in blue, gray, yellow,

brown and cucumber green. What

made his glazes unique is they were

executed in soft shades without gloss.

In 1900, Grueby exhibited his work at

the Paris Exposition Universelle,

where he won three gold medals.

Grueby’s pottery was hand-thrown

and hand-decorated. While making art

pottery, he also continued to design

and produce tiles. I can’t find any evi-

dence that his art pottery was made

after about 1910. Depending on the

style of your vases, they could be

worth several thousand dollars each.

For example, a six-sided vase with

leaves in green recently sold for

$2,000. Some of his others have sold

for even more. I suggest you hire the

services of a good certified personal

property appraiser and get them docu-

mented for insurance purposes.

***

Q: I am enclosing pictures and need

you to identify and tell me what these

two pans were used for. I bought them

at auction about 35 years ago and have

never seen others like them. I also need

a price range value. Ð- Linda, Dar-

lington, Indiana

A: Your question is a little like

showing me a picture of a brick and

asking me what kind of structure it

came from. Your pans could have been

used to prepare food on a working

farm. My grandmother had several

such pans, which she used when

preparing apples for cider and grapes

for juice. I don’t make appraisals, and

since it is not known where your pans

were made or by whom, I can’t provide

any additional information.

Write to Larry Cox in care of

KFWS, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando,

FL 32803, or send e-mail to questions-

[email protected]. Due to the large vol-

ume of mail he receives, Mr. Cox

cannot personally answer all reader

questions, nor does he do appraisals.

* Ease the weekday morning time

crunch by planning your wardrobe on

the weekends. Use a single hanger to

gather everything you need for a smart,

sandwich bag with accessories to the

hanger with a clothespin, and you’ll be

dressed in minutes.

* “When my child stopped napping

during the day, I had much less time to

take care of household chores. So I

started recording books on tape for him

to listen to while I took care of a few

tasks around the house. It’s still quiet

time, even if he doesn’t actually go to

sleep.” — R.L. in Minnesota

* “I purchase extra school supplies

when back-to-school time brings the

sales. Inevitably, we need extras as the

school year wears on, and these items

can be pricier later.” — Y.C. in Alabama

* “I use an over-the-door shoe or-

ganizer on the back of the door in our

den for homework supplies. It has large

and small pockets, so I can include

pens, pencils, paper, stapler, tape and

other small supplies, as well as differ-

ent kinds of paper and folders. We have

three kids who all take homework time

together, so they have all they need right

at their fingertips!” — M.D. in Nevada

* “Convenience grocery items are so

wonderful, but they can be pricey. If

you find something you really like, try

buying the ingredients, making several

and storing them in plastic containers.

My kids have a ball making their own

‘Lunchables’ to take to school for the

week.” — O.P. in Missouri

* Print out a copy of your children’s

school lunch calendar, and post it in the

kitchen. Your kids can double-check the

lunch for the next day to make sure it’s

something they will eat. You also can

reference it when meal-planning, so you

don’t repeat a meal at home that the kids

have had at school.
